Hey, I also don't have a Arahbo deck, but to take more advantage of eminence (+3/+3 for a Cat) my advice is to keep the mana curve low. Mostly one and two drop Cats, some three drops, couple of four drops and top the curve at five drop
Regal Caracal
and Arahbo:

Third, consider cutting creatures. At no point in time your opponents will let you have full board.
Two-Headed Giant
, for example, is at least non-synergistic. Instead, add enchantments that give haste and trample.

Fourth, point removal and commander protection. It is more important than you think. Forget about
Blood Moon
, you are not running stax, you need to beat face.

The deck looks pretty interesting, I have always wondered what this commander could do. I thought about trying it myself.
I think that
Coat of Arms
and
Door of Destinies
are unnecessary due to all of the sphinxes being relatively strong (most are 4 or 5, some are 6+) and due to how much mana the sphinxes cost, it might be difficult to play these in addition to the sphinxes and control spells.
You could consider
Cloud Key
to help reduce the cost of whatever you need when you draw it. As well as
Call to the Kindred
to help you get some free sphinxes.
If you want to keep some buffs for them, consider
Metallic Mimic
or
Adaptive Automaton
.
Or, if you want to play around with the Sphinx ETB effects, consider
Cloudstone Curio
.
lastly, a little extra Mana ramp should you want it, I really enjoy
Myriad Landscape
.
I hope this helps!
